“Yes!” Fu Qingxuan pulled the suitcases in. Seeing that she came along, he continued to warn her. “Don’t touch the stuff in here or you’re dead meat.”
It was not like Shen Xi wanted to touch other people’s things anyway. She went ahead and grabbed the suitcases. “Save it. I’m not staying here.”
Stubborn as he was, Fu Qingxuan loved to play the devil’s advocate. He was bound and determined once he set his mind to it. The more Shen Xi resisted, the more he wanted her to stay.
Shen Xi pulled the luggage away.
He stole them back.
The pair engaged in a tug-o-war for a whole half hour which ended in a staring competition.
Shen Xi had no clue why she would become immature when facing him. The moron must have got to her head. Clenching her teeth, she glared at him. “Wouldn’t the problem be solved if I just leave?”
“You can leave.” Fu Qingxuan tried to freak her out. “But there are no cars or buses here. There have been a few murder cases of dismembered bodies around here as well. The victims were girls of your age and the killer has yet to be found. There are also wild animals in the mountains. The boars are as big as cows. You won’t stand a chance if you ever run into them.”
Shen Xi scoffed. “Do you think you scare me?”
“You have two choices. Either stay there or call my brother.” Fu Qingxuan refused to drop it. “Call now. You’re free to leave if he agrees to let you go without busting my b*lls about it.”
It would not be up for discussion if Shen Xi gave Fu Qingye a call. A gentle person such as Qingye would never allow her to leave.
Moreover, Shen Xi would give in without a doubt when he used that soft tone with her. There was no way she could refuse him.
Stumped for ideas, Shen Xi was leaning towards knocking Fu Qingxuan out cold.
The guy was a real imbecile. Moments ago, Fu Qingxuan was being mean and yelling at her because he cherished his sister’s room so much.
Right now, he insisted that she stayed in the same room. Shen Xi was tempted to cut open his brain to see what was inside.
Leaning against the door frame, Fu Qingxuan folded his arms and watched her unpack while ranting incessantly on what could be touched and what could not be. One wrong move and he threatened to cut off her arm.
After unpacking all her things, Shen Xi took out the rice and hotpot, and headed into the kitchen.
Frustrated, Fu Qingxuan kicked the sofa and watched the girl entered the kitchen with a demented look on his face.
He was out of his mind.
Yes, he had definitely gone mad.
This was so unlike him. Fu Qingxuan did not want her to stay in his sister’s room. He should let her leave.
However, why was he not himself and did the opposite of what he had in mind when she was upset?
Fu Qingxuan finally understood why his brother got caught up in her. It was not that Fu Qingye did not want to control or restrain his feelings, it was because he had no control over them.
Perhaps she was so identical to Mom that he was reminded of her when he picked on Shen Xi. Fu Qingxuan simply could not have the heart to do what he set out to do.
Out of courtesy, Shen Xi asked, “Young Master, do you want dinner?”
Fu Qingxuan had a feeling that Shen Xi was teasing him by calling him “Young Master”. He gave her a cold look before fiercely answering, “No.”
He then proudly walked away with his shoulders back.
Furrowing her brows, Shen Xi curled her lips and mumbled to herself, “Someone ate a firecracker.”
What was with the temper?
Nevertheless, this defiant young master whose actions did not match his words was interesting. She did not hate him one bit.
